Week 4 Thoughts

As I am taking both EDET 628 and 674 (both being taught by Lee) this summer, I keep getting my schedules confused.  I even have the calendars for both classes scheduled!  But there is so much going on during my summer vacation that I am lucky to keep up with anything - a tree fell on my carport at the house I been trying to sell and my daughter is having eye surgery soon so been going to dr. appointments for that.  I am leading into the fact that I missed Mondays webinar and now I cannot find the recording link that Lee sent.  I really wanted to see that one too because my course is a blended-asynchronous course.

I did however make the Thursday webinar and I really enjoyed it.  Matthew was a great presenter and I was excited about all of the information that he gave.  I especially enjoyed the example that he showed us toward the end of the session.  I recognized a few of the schools that participated in the course and enjoyed going through all of their video news.  I tried to see how this could help me with my math classes and have yet to come up with something similar.

I started to create my course through my districts Moodle site.  I emailed one of my district technology specialists to set up a guest account so that y'all will be able to view my course.  I hope to have that at the beginning of this upcoming week and will blog and tweet that information to everyone.  At the moment, I am setting up my modules and links for information that I already have available.  During this upcoming week, I will begin working on creating more assignments and materials for each module.  I cannot begin to express how exciting it is to take my ideas and actually being creating something my students will be able to use.  Please reply with all your thoughts and ideas on how to make my course better!
